The rantings of a knitter on the edge!

TurtleMania

God bless my dh! I was saying how I’d soon have to stop working on the turtles for my quilt and work on the turtles for dgd’s quilt because I just didn’t have enough differant green fabrics to make mine looke good. So today dh gave me the little bit of $$ to get some fabrics! I got 18 differant, 19 total, straight 1/8ths of green fabrics. The strip on the far right, yes that’s just one, I got two of because it has that panel on both ends that takes up a bit of fabric.

Now if made according to the pattern there’s only 8 turtles per quilt/wall hanging. With the three good fabrics that I have, that makes 21, so that’s a possible total of 42 differant turtles! So obviously I am either enlarging the quilt, or I am making more than one. Possibly I may even do both, enlarge the quilt and make more than one of them. I have yet to decide fully.
